Spammers and Scammers are running rampant out there on social media and they have their eyes set on your logins. So what can you do to protect yourself and your business assets? Heres a few! A few things that are best to keep in mind here: -Meta (Facebook’s corporate name) will never contact you regarding your account via DMs, comments, or Messenger. Any official account action is always received by email, and email only. -If you receive an email like this, look at the “from” field to make sure it is coming from somebody actually at meta.com or facebook.com, I see a lot of scams that look very official, but the “from” field lists a Gmail.com or outlook.com address. You can instantly mark those as spam. -If the email has a link, hover over it with your mouse WITHOUT CLICKING. It’ll show you where it actually goes. If the link goes anywhere besides meta.com or Facebook.com, it’s a scam, and you should mark it as spam. There’s an awful lot of social engineering attempts going on out there, and I see them daily. One thing they are getting good at is getting better with their verbiage, tactics and targeting.
